Read MoreI love Albright. From the moment you step in you feel completely welcome. The first week freshmen arrive a week before classes for orientation. You are put in groups with two very peppy leaders and you spend the week attending events that break the ice, get you used to campus and where your classes are and exposes you to all the other freshmen. This time is pack full of fun and learning and it really introduces and acclimates you to Albright life. As you start going to classes you get to know a lot more people and the environment is just really welcoming. There is a lot to do on campus like the gym, concerts, coffee places, poetry readings, experience events, plays, sports event, dances, trips ect. and there are always people around to hang out with. It's like a little family. Personally I miss everyone when I am on break even if it is just for one week. I can't wait to get back!
Read MoreAs a first year student I commuted to Albright everyday. This year I am living on campus. If that itself does not say I enjoy being here, then I do not know what else really could. I love Albright SO much. Living in the area I never thought of myself going here, but when I stepped on campus for my tour I knew it was a place I would call home. Whether it be Albright or any other college make sure you have a sense of belonging there and can see yourself there walking to class and relaxing around the campus.
Read MoreThe school is full of cliques and most of the students hardly have time for friends outside of academics and clubs so it is definitely hard to make friends after freshman year. In addition, there is not much of a party scene. However, the small campus is nice because it never takes more than 10 minutes to walk to class and the small class sizes are nice.
Read MoreA big turn-off was that the campus is in the middle of nowhere. They have buses on specific days that take you to the essential places (Mall-Monday, Target-Tuesday, Walmart-Wednesday. It's pathetic that of all things I remembered that from the tour....). it looks like its a very tigh-knit community with a very small student body. not what I'm looking for....
